WNBA Stats at a Glance

A fast, mobile-first WNBA stats site: wnba.statsataglance.com

Built for checking stats courtside on your phone. No ads, no frameworks, no app to install. One static HTML page that loads instantly.

What's on it

• Games (landing tab): today's schedule plus yesterday's finals, linked to inline box scores
• Standings with Pythagorean expected W/L and playoff cutoff
• Leaders with WNBA qualifying minimums
• Efficiency (Four Factors: offensive/defensive ratings, pace, eFG%, TOV%, ORB%, FT rate)
• Team Totals per game with matchup comparison
• Player Stats with search, team filtering, and season totals
• Key reference

How it works

A GitHub Actions workflow runs every morning:

1. Fetches the latest box scores from ESPN's public API
2. Computes all stats in Python (pandas)
3. Bakes everything into a single self-contained HTML file
4. Deploys to Cloudflare Workers

No database, no server, no JavaScript frameworks. The entire site is one HTML file with inline CSS and vanilla JS.

Data

Game data comes from ESPN's public (undocumented) WNBA API via the sportsdataverse Python package. Sports statistics are facts and are not copyrightable under US law (NBA v. Motorola, 2nd Cir. 1997).

Design

Inspired by plaintextsports.com. Monospace font, dark background, minimal UI. Designed to be glanceable on a phone screen with sticky columns and swipe-to-scroll for detailed stats.
